Yeah. I heard he routinely tips people $100. He looks good at his age. Stylish and more handsome than when he was younger.

+spider man I think they didn't mention it because the series ended 7 years prior to the interview.

spider man who’s line and the drew carey show were on ABC. This interview was on CBS. All these shows - morning and late night - are obliged to do interviews with the stars of their own network’s show. As entertaining as this interview was (and unnecessary, given TPIR’s popularity), it was really just a five minute long commercial. Still, I love Drew Carey and virtually everything he’s ever done.

@@worshipgeek even Geppetto?

@@TheSaxAppeal Geppetto on DVD?!

@@worshipgeek not exactly true,

a marine too semper fi.

@@josephhickman4528 Oh, I didn't know that!

@epicurus wasright That sure would be nice. I miss his laugh on that show.

@@misanthrobot He became my favorite Whose Line host.

Watched Bob Barker starting in the early '70's on "Truth or Consequences", he always reminded me of a guitar string tightened up & ready to snap. Drew is a much better host. Drew has the same delivery as Bob Hope, but funnier. Barker had no delivery for a career in show business , just a display of stressed out showmanship.

Romans 10:9 I noticed this too especially ad I got older. It just seemed like Bob Barker was just mad all the time and it felt like he didn't really want to be there.

You caught that!!!! Ha ha

Yikes

He seems to genuinely enjoy it now. I think when Bob left it was so hard to accept someone else, so that didn't help how he was perceived but he's definitely better than he was.

I don't think he was bored as much as he was uncomfortable or unable to accept the fact that he was there to fgill tyhe big shoes that Bob had left. He was probably thinking "I'm gonna blow this! I'm gonna blow this so bad!"

he did it for money pure and simple. he's not a good fit for this show at all

That sounds about right. He had big shoes to fill and he knew it, so he put a lot of pressure on himself in his first few years. Now he's just being himself, and it's working, he's done so well.

Agreed with the first one there, of course his first year run, I wasn’t feeling it much, I could understand, these were huuuuuuuuuuuge shoes to fill, and I mean huuuuuuuuuuuuuuge! How can you do that after the GOAT, another moment some said he didn’t do too well with was that exact bid on the showcase, another point I could get where he was going, probably thought that’s his last show or something, but of course, that was just pure luck combined with skill, another story, but over the years he’s went above and beyond expectation to keep this show going, and that’s the only show, truth be told, I’ll watch in daytime. I’ve said it before, I am a loyal friend and true.

I know right? Sad so many people let obesity rob their good looks.

He would never have gotten on TV period if he weren't good looking to some degree.

The 1950's version doesn't bare a lot of resemblance to today's version. I saw some of the early episodes repeated on GSN many years ago, so I forget what was different, but there was a huge difference.

Rob Ricci TPIR 50 (Cullen) was basically a half hour long non stop contestants row. It was more like an auction than what it became when Mark Goodson rebooted it into what it is now.

when Barker started TPIR they called it "The New Price is Right" so when you hear it mentioned now-a-days, its likely the New Price is Right is the one theyre talking about

Maybe tpir didn't stay on straight through?

Yes, it does seem that Drew is more genuine with the contestants than Bob.

everybody has some good or bad qualities, but bob made the show and he was classy. drew will never be as good. in fact he's a comedian and is not a good fit for this show at all

They both have their good points but I like drew better

I think Drew would definitely appreciate that comparison.😃

Amtrak Productions AIDS:-(

His appearance transformed so rapidly and from "out of the blue" (i.e.: wasn't done for an acting role he was engaged in, no life event or newly discovered passion that would motivate him to become a health/fitness enthusiast, etc), that I was really fearful that it would come out at some point that he was battling a serious illness/disease. AIDS was kinda far down the list, though. For whatever reason (not sure why), failing kidneys or liver, diabetes or hepatitis seemed more likely to me to be what was the cause, if indeed failing health was the reason. Turns out a little change in eating habits and effort to not eat the "poisonous food" the food industry mostly sells, be it heavily processed foods, foods that have high levels of sugar/artificial sweeteners added or are a melange of chemicals mixed together in lieu of using the actual food they are representing that chemical cocktail to be, helps the body to shed those poisons and help the body to do what it's supposed to do to properly regulate body function and get to a body weight that is appropriate. That's primarily what the real agent for change was that powered his transformation. Odd how the industry that's supposed to be nourishing the people who buy their products are doing more harm to them than "Nourishing". Whatever it takes to get those "dollah, dollah bills, y'all"...

IDK if this is meant as sarcasm, but If it is 😂 and if not, Barker is still alive. He will be 96 in December.

Yeah...she's a journalist now because she's Oprah's bestie, lol?

I was born in 1977 and think Drew can't compare to Bob Barker as host.

Hugh? oh okay. I get the hint?

Steve Balistreri DREW........Carey

YUT!
